I was a mess. It got to a point that I would chew up food and spit it out just to taste what my children were eating. I was evil when I couldn't eat. Only fluids was very hard but its just a step to a better way of life. Good luck.

I have had my band in almost 5 years in June. I am filled to the brim. I have been having gas pains and numbness, tingling and pain in my left shoulder that goes up to my neck. It gets so bad that I'm in a ball and in tears. Yes the band has worked for me. I weighed 233 when I first got the band and I'm now 165. No I have not reached my goal although I was close 3 years ago but was diagnosed with cervical cancer. So I'm back on track and just not seeing the results anymore. I stopped going to the gym bc I'm doing Insanity (which I love by the way). My port hurts a lot when I'm doing some stretches. I just feel like I don't need this crutch anymore. But I just didn't know if I should keep it in or take it out. Has anyone had it removed and if so is there any ups and downs?

Hi, I am new, well not really new but I have only been on here once. I have had my lab band for almost five years. My first year was great I lost about 70 pounds.But things have happend and I am trying to get back on track. Thanks
